Bears on skates!

The most popular article on the BBC tonight is about a Russian circus trainer who was mauled and killed by a bear that he was training to ice skate (the bear was wearing skates when it mauled him). Here is the last line of the article:
"Bears on ice are common in Russian circuses. Some are equipped with helmets and sticks and trained to play hockey."
This led me to do a google search, which quickly led me to this:



Did you see any ice-skating bears in Russia BK?

They are surprisingly good, although the goalie is a bit lazy.
